    the Sabbath

    Hey, Soyeong... To my understanding: The law of the Spirit of life has made me free from the law of sin and death. The first testament is the law of sin and death because transgression of the commandments bring the curse of death. The first testament is superseded by the New Testament because no...

    Who has the right to give moral discipline

    Allah is not real, just a make-believe fiction. All food, meat or vegies are sanctified by the word of God and prayer. The only time to consider not eating meat is when a new believer, who doesn't understand that there is no Allah, might see a brother eat such meat and be emboldened to also...

    A covenant is a promise. Did God cancel His first promise?

    Thus saith the Lord; I will make a new covenant with the house of Judah and the house of Israel, not like the covenant that I made with their forefathers when I took them by the hand and led them out of the land of Egypt, which my covenant they broke even though I was a husband unto them. But I...

    What would we believe in regarding the Gospel of Christ if Paul's writings were not part of the Bible?

    If all scripture were easily understood, there wouldn't be a need for study, nor would we have reason to share our thoughts with one another and enjoy the resulting fellowship. Now, it's like opening a bag and finding treasures, both old and new. Now, we have an opportunity to overcome seeing...

    What would we believe in regarding the Gospel of Christ if Paul's writings were not part of the Bible?

    Good response. There is nothing wrong with it being hard to understand and it would seem that Peter agrees with you in that... Praise the Lord both now and forever in Jesus' name! : )

    What would we believe in regarding the Gospel of Christ if Paul's writings were not part of the Bible?

    Was it Paul's understanding that inspired his writings or was it the Holy Spirit's? Is your finite mind able to decipher between which scriptures are from the Lord and which are not?

    What would we believe in regarding the Gospel of Christ if Paul's writings were not part of the Bible?

    Did Paul inspire what he wrote or was it the Holy Spirit? Is your mind and understanding better than the Lord's? Perhaps, the Holy Spirit should have obtained your council and regarding to how he should speak life as he instructs the faithful, since he's leading us into lawlessness...

    What would we believe in regarding the Gospel of Christ if Paul's writings were not part of the Bible?

    Why would we neglect a portion of scripture for any reason? Peter is the one person that know heard from the Father directly by Jesus' own praise, when he said to Peter, "Blessed art thou, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. Thus peter is the one...

    Query about different thinking of when a person dies, how come many different interpretations

    Heb 11 tells us of those who have gone before us and have died in faith. Then in Heb 12: 1, we're told, "Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin that does so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race...

    Is sanctification frequently misunderstood?

    Heb 5 "For when for the time you ought to be teachers, you have need that one teach again the elementary principals of the oracles of God and are become such as have need of milk rather than strong meat. For anyone who is unskillful in the word of righteousness is a babe and needs milk...

    the Sabbath

    "What things soever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God." (Not just Israel) "Before faith we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith that afterward be revealed. Wherefor the law was our...

    Biblically does suffering/hardship lead to empathy?

    To love others as we love ourselves enables us to have empathy for them. When Lazarus' sister Mary went to Jesus, broken hearted; Jesus wept, knowing that in a few short minutes, she would be rejoicing with great joy as her brother stepped out of his grave. We're told in scripture that "for...

    What is the Unpardonable Sin

    To blaspheme is to speak evilly. The difference between stumbling and falling away; is that when we stumble, we get back up. 2 Pet 3: 9 "The Lord is not slack concerning his promise as some men count slackness, but is longsuffering to usward, not willing for any to perish, but for all to come...

    What is the Unpardonable Sin

    How can an unbeliever do anything in the life to come? Wouldn't they be busy wailing and gnashing their teeth while being tormented day and night, forever and ever in the lake of fire? Perhaps we should study the meaning of the Greek word for blaspheme.

    What is the difference between the old and new covenant?

    In Gal 3 we learn that Abraham believed God and was accounted as righteousness unto him and his seed. This promise was made four hundred and thirty years before the covenant of the law which was added because of transgressions. Also, we see that the law could not make the promise which was by...

    Fullness of the gentiles

    For the Jewish people, it'll be a remnant who'll be saved. Those who flee into the mountains as advised by the scriptures. See Mk 13: 14 and L 21: 21... Those who survive the 7 years of the trib will have until Jesus returns to repent or while they are yet standing, their flesh will be consumed...

    Fullness of the gentiles

    As inquisitor quoted Lu 21: 24, Jerusalem will be trodden down of the gentiles until the times of the gentiles are fulfilled. In vs 32 we're told that this generation shall not pass away until all is fulfilled. We're also told that we'll live for three score and ten years or by reason of...

    He who letteth will let.

    Jesus gave the church, the body of Christ authority over all the power of the enemy. He is referring to the members of the church, who have to be raptured before the evil one can reveal himself to the world, which I suspect occurs at the abomination of desolation when the anti-christ reveals...

    What is the Unpardonable Sin

    If it is not possible for it to be done now-a-days, then why are we told that it will not be forgiven in this life nor in the life to come? To my understanding, this would be an eternal forbidden fruit, if you will, and by not doing it in the next life, we will be choosing the Lord; otherwise...

    everything is predestined?

    In the book of James, we're told, "Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God; for God cannot be tempted with evil and neither does he temp any man. We each are tempted when we of our own lust are drawn away, and enticed..." In Mt 10 "There hath no temptation taken you, but such as...
